Astronome, Wise Observatory, Tel Aviv University, Israël Période de résidence à l’IMéRA : septembre et octobre 2010 Projet de recherche : (a) Extrapolation, (b) UV astronomy |
Research project summary
(a) This project attempts to understand the extrapolation by which conclusions are reached in the absence of hard information. Extrapolation exists outside the strict mathematical domain and may be a basic ability of all life forms. I would like to create a unified view of extrapolation, probably in the form of a monograph, following a thorough literature survey and consultations with experts.
(b) I am the Principal Investigator of TAUVEX, a small space telescope dedicated to wide-field ultraviolet (UV) imaging. TAUVEX will be launched in 2009 and will perform a deep survey of a small fraction of the sky. Following the launch and the beginning of routine space exploitation, I would like to work together with LAS people with UV astronomy experience to understand the results.
